Note: If you are just starting out in the game, the Squidport build kicks off at game level 15 (not XP level 15), once you’ve completed all the tasks that follow the Moe’s Tavern build. By the time you get to building Springfield Downs, you should be able to get underway – although buying that water expansion may be a bit of an obstacle
Homer kicks off the building of Squidport
Squidport Pt. 1
After tapping Homer
Homer: D’oh!
Lisa: What’s wrong, Dad?
Homer: Oh, that wasn’t an annoyed “d’oh” – I was thinking about “dough”. Like the delicious fried dough they used to sell down at the waterfront. Get in the car, kids! We’re going to the Squidport!
Lisa: Dad, remember? You blew up the town. There is no Squidport.
Homer: D’oh! That one was an annoyed d’oh.
Lisa: I suppose we could rebuild the Squidport. It’s be nice to see our town finally stretch down to the water.
Homer: Get in the car, kids! We’re going to rebuild the Squidport!
Lisa: Nobody “gets in cars” anymore. We all just walk aimlessly on the streets.
Homer: D’oh!
Lisa: Which kind was that?
Homer: Little of both.
Buy Beach Expansion
Buy Water Expansion
Squidport Pt. 2
After tapping Homer
Homer: Okay, water expansion bought! …and it was surprisingly easy considering it’s prime oceanfront property and all my money is fake.
Lisa: Great! Now we can build the Squidport Entrance.
Homer: You know what they say: “Every great building begins with the door!”
Lisa: Who says that?
Homer: I dunno. Building builders, I assume.

Squidport Pt. 3
After tapping Homer
Homer: Mmm, fried dough. A plate-sized glob of wet flour, deep fried and covered with whipped cream… Ow! Chest pains! I need to exercise. By walking a short distance along the boardwalk to get to the Fried Dough Stand.
You now enter the Tutorial Phase of Squidport. It will show you how to place the 4 boardwalk sections that came (for free) with the Squidport Entrance. Note: It won’t always be this easy to get Boardwalk tiles.
Squidport Pt. 4
After tapping Homer
Homer: Ah, the Squidport! Full of charming junkies and colorful runaways, attracted by the smell of carnival food and shady merchants… Wait a minute! My Squidport doesn’t have any of that!
Lisa: Dad? Is something wrong?
Homer: No, sweetie. Daddy just has to have a talk with his real estate partners. STUPID WATERFRONT! EMBARRASS ME IN FRONT OF JUNKIES AND RUNAWAYS!

The Old Man and the Sea Pt.1
After tapping Homer
Homer: Uh-oh, did I blow another brain vessel? I think I’m hallucinating a house out there…in the ocean. , it’s real! It’s some kind of house/boat hybrid! Hmmm, I wonder what you call that?

The Old Man and the Sea Pt. 2
After tapping Sea Captain
Sea Captain: Y’arr, who be doing all that squalling and cussing at the sea? Ye made me sailors blush. Seriously, some of them cried.
Homer: Sorry, sometimes I have a potty mouth. Anyhoo, who the F@#& are you?
Sea Captain: Captain McCallister. Just let in from a long haul at sea. Been at Madagascar and Malabar and spent half a hundred days floating ’round the giant garrrbage patch in the Pacific. Y’arr, that last one tweren’t intentional. But sit ye down and have a yarn with the Captain. I’ll tell of a ship that near went under, her belly laden with counterfeit Kindle Fires.
Homer: Eh, I’m really not much for listening to people.
Sea Captain: Did I mention there’s be rum by the bucketfull?
Homer: Yarn away! Don’t leave anything out!
Make the Sea Captain Tell Tall Tales-4hrs
Squidport Pt. 5
After tapping the Sea Captain
Sea Captain: Ya’rr, the Squidport! This old seadog has spent many a silver here, having me caricature made and eating Dipping Dots. Tho something’s different now, can’t lay a finger to it. Wait, I have it – it’s become totally lame.
Homer: I know, right? You can’t buy a fried anything or squoosh a penny into a worthless flat oval.
Sea Captain: Me men’ll get this place into ship-shape. The finest builders what sailed the seas!
Lisa: It makes sense that sailors would know carpentry. They have to constantly repair the ship.
Sea Captain: Aye. We’ll start by building a logo store to increase footfalls and up the spill-over effect.
Lisa: Okay, now it’s making less sense.
Sea Captain: Sailors must also be well-versed in mall-science and neuromarketing.
